Sculptor Ronalds Jaunzems – a stone workshop with character and vision
With deep family traditions in stone carving and an academic background from the Art Academy of Latvia, sculptor Ronalds Jaunzems offers high-quality and uniquely designed headstones, sculptures, and artistic stone objects made from natural boulder.
His creative work is marked by a *classical sense of humanity9 — the pieces often depict stylized or portrait-like human figures, created in either round sculpture or relief. A significant part of the work also includes grave site enhancement, where existing elements are seamlessly integrated with new additions to create a harmonious whole.
Unique Design and Artistic Approach
The sculptor’s style is characterized by:
-
Romantic, bright, and expressive form language;
-
Careful attention to detail – inscriptions are hand-carved and clearly legible;
-
Emotional depth – capturing feelings, moments, and even coincidences;
-
Handmade stone accessories – vases, flower pots, candle holders, and more.
Tradition Combined with Modern Technology
The workshop offers:
-
3D design and visualization so the client can see the end result in the planning stage;
-
A unique stone turning technique for creating both decorative and functional elements;
-
Granite inlays and textured finishes, giving the stone a contemporary aesthetic.
Workshop and Process
-
Located in “Jostnieki”, Užava parish, Ventspils region – materials, sketches, and the working process can be viewed on-site.
-
Convenient remote communication – including material selection, idea discussion, 3D sketches, and final approval.
-
Each project is custom-made for every client, regardless of location – installations are carried out across Latvia and exported to Europe, the USA, and Australia.
Every piece is crafted by the sculptor himself – from sketch to installation
Ronalds Jaunzems designs, sculpts, and installs every piece himself, in collaboration with a reliable team also handling grave site planning and landscaping.
